WashingtOn's Destiny.
A PRODUCTION WHICH WILL CERTAINLY
BE RECORDED AS FACT IN THE FUTURE

PRODUCTION WHICH WILL CERTAINLY
Walla Walla Statesman: Washing
ton is destined to play a CONSPICUOUS
part in the future commercial history
Of the Northwest Coast. Her Terri
tory is extensive and her latent re-
sources are unnumbered. She is
great in agricultural resources, and
her manufacturing possibilities are
grand and magnificent to contemplate.
She has long stretch of sea coast
and is an available factor in the i'm
mense commercial development that
is springing up around her. The in
coming tide of immigration that is
bearing down upon her will soon
seize upon and utilize her great man
ufacturing resources. When by de-
velopment they approximate to her
agricultural advantages, the foundation
is laid for commercial era that will
make her one of the richest and most
important States in the Union. She
has grand forests of timber and noun
tains of coal and iron, and natural
water power to fashion these resources
into all of the implements of civiliza-
ton. Brain and muscle hand in hand
will seize upon these natural resources
and weld and mold them into the fac
tors that serve civilization and enhance
the prosperity of the state. All of her
resources are upon o grand scale.
The God of nature with Herculean
power and in unstinted measure forged
out her great and illinlitable resources,
and planted them deep in the soil of
the valleys and hid them in the clefts
of the rocks upon the mountain sides
and tops. With Titan strength and
might he forged her mountain ranges
and scooped out the beds of her grand
alu hoplc INcISy StIctCllcu OUT IllS
mighty arm and smoothed out the
rugged lines of her prairies and up
lands. There was no ephemeral or
superficial effort in his work. He
wrought upon grand scale and made
her resources like unto the boundaries
of her broad expanse, great and mex
haustable. immigration will con-
tinue to flock her shores and spread
out over her broad expanse of terri
tory, till, in the days to come, she will
become n great and prosperous COM
monwealth. Millions of people will
sit down under her vine and fig tree.
Her agricultural products, her manu-
factured implements, on the wings of
her commercial devclopement will
reach the shores of the Old World and
the Islands of the sea. Her inhabi-
tants will become wise and wealthy
and Washington, nesting on the west
ern shores Of the Pacific slope, will be-
come q great and potential factor in
the grandert union of brotherhood
that inhabits the face Of the broad and
mighty globe.

Col. IngersolPs speech defending

Col. Ingersoll's speech defending
Reynolds, who is an ex-minister,
for blasphemy, at Norristown, N. j.,
is said to have been a gem of eloquence.
For two hours he held the audience
spell.bound, and when he closed strict
church men grasped his hand and
blessed him. Some of his sentences
were as sweet as music, and the
thought behind them as deep and full
as miscrere. Among other things
he said: "FOr my part ! would not
wish to live in a world where l could
not express my honest opinion. 1
deny the right of any number Of men
to put a paddock on the lips of another
to make the tongue q convict. /
deny the right of the Herod of author
ity to kill the children of the brain.
The statue under which this man
was indicted was passed more than a
hundred years ago, and it has slept
all these years like a venOmous rep
tile beneath the altar of liberty"
The Salt Lake Tribune editorially
says: "Ingersoll is one of the most
wonderful of men, all in all, of this
generation. With heart as soft as q
woman's, and with u tongue, tipped
sometimes with honey and sometimes
with fire, he travels down the world
followed by misses and cheers, but in
different to both, looks for all the COM
fort he wants in the heaven of his
own home. Nature gave him the
power to think in poetry and to give
expression to his thoughts in music.
If there was Styx he would cross it
smiling. and if there was beyond the
land of Shades, Ingersoll would on
reaching there join Sisyphus in the
song, the labor and the harvest.
